I have a winding noise, im guessing from the power steering. It happens when I turn, like to park. but when driving at normal speeds theres no sounds. Only at low speeds.

I have power steering problems to. A mechnic was working on my car installing an alternator and he messed up my power steering. If the fluid is full its the pump or the hose.
